    What's your bag of choice for work/recreational/whatever?

    Planning on investing in this on lunch break today :)

    I have a Louis Vuitton one, it's great for carrying phones wallet passport etc, But I think there more common here in mainland Europe than at home, you don't get as many funny looks.maybe it has changed ?

    It probably sounds ridiculous but I've always felt awkward using a bag that isn't a backpack and thankfully fashion has finally started realising there's a market for mid- to high-end backpacks.

    I bought this Diesel one a few months ago (ignore the man bun) and I'm delighted with it. In time I'd like to spend a bit more on a full leather one.

    I prefer backpacks. I hate having something on only one shoulder.No matter how much I try to get used to it. I just cant. I would rather hold a bag at my chest, than carry it on one shoulder.

    Timbuk2 messenger bag is my bag of choice. I've had 2, one small and one large. And I prefer the large. It just sits better on your back. Well made bags, take a lot of abuse, pretty water proof, and comfortable. Maybe after a while they can become annoying on one shoulder. But I rarely carry much!

    I do not wear make up so I do not need a man bag.

    They look great, but they weigh a ton!! They are made from quite heavy duty leather.

    I was after one of those Tumi bags (albeit the messenger one) when Amazon were selling them off as daily deals but kept missing out. They look lovely.
